As well as a large range of scopes, Konus also manufacture binoculars, bipods, red dot sights, tripods, spotting scopes, torches and scope mounts. It requires precision and patience to mount a scope to a rifle and to get everything set just right, quality mounts help make this task easier. The quick release (QR) models from Konus are manufactured from steel, making them strong and durable. They are designed to fit Weaver/Picatinny style rails and are sold as a pair of split rings. They are available for 1” or 30mm body tubes and are available in low, medium and high profiles. The design incorporates well profiled top caps, which are secured using four Torx screws and also include cross-bars on the underside of the mounts. These locate into the slots of the rail, so that the scope and rings cannot move under recoil. This feature also makes re-attaching the optic in the same position much easier. Being QR, means that no tools are required to put them on or take them off. The design incorporates individual thumb levers on each base, which can be tightened or undone in an instant by hand. These mounts are heavier than some aluminium alternatives; however, they are well made and extremely versatile.
